Friday Fun: Our Little Picasso!

One of my favorite things to do with Anna is art projects. I love watching her draw, attempt to write letters, color, paint, make collages, etc.

Recently she discovered watercolor painting for the first time. We had a blast with it!  Check out the flip book below:

You Know You're Tired When....

I'm used to being tired all the time. It comes with the territory. What bugs me is feeling that hard-to-shake, fuzzy-headedness first thing in the morning, when I just feel like I can't get going. Because Anna is usually going at full tilt in about 30 seconds.

So, I wasn't quite awake when Anna asked me to draw an octopus for her the other day before school.  This is what she got:

Mama T's "undecopus"

Yes, that's right, it has eleven arms. I even took the time to draw the little suction things on the bottom of the arms, I was that alert....yet somehow I didn't realize that I drew 3 too many arms. My little freak of nature is now proudly hanging out on the fridge next to Anna's art.

This is why I'm not quitting my day job!
